A Lucky Frier.
The Topeka Democrat vouches for
a statement to the effect that a Saline ,
. , , ah nnn a
county farmer, who was $9,000 :and
some interest in debt and had given
up in despair, when his creditors told
him to go ahead one more year and
they would see him through. That
was last year. He planted 870 acres
in wheat and when he harvested it
the yield by actual scale measure was
just one peck less than forty bushels
to -the acre average. He had the
whole crop contracted for before the
grain was cut at 52 cents per bushel,
and last week he went to the agent,
nnid nff his entire debt, nrincioal and
interest, and had $4,100 in clean cash j
left. Besides this, he has to cut(
nearly 500 acres of fine com and to
the result of his year's work may be j
added his crops of sorghum, millet
hay, etc. When he received his ,
mortgage back, cancelled, he took it
and tore to little bits in the presence
of the agent of the trust company
vowing that so long as he lived he
would never again borrow a cent on
mortgage for speculative purposes,
and it is not likely that he will.

How They View It.
The United States government has
invited all the governments of the
new world to take part in a congress
to be held in Washington under the
watch word of "United America"
and especially "America United
Against Europe." Uniform weights,
measures and coinage are to be in
troduced., a court of arbitration ap
pointed to settle all disputes between
American states. Encroachments of
European states in connection with
American affairs are to be jointly op
posed and the most important of all,
a uniform tariff of rates on custom
duties is to be established.
The plan, says the Fremdenblatt,
is one of imposing grandeur and
Secretary Blaine, who conceived it,
will thereby surely add numbers to
the rank of his party. Perhaps it
was with this view that this bold con
ception was launched, rumors of
which had been current for; some
time.
That the success of Mr. Blaine's
device, the article continues, would
be of great and disagreeable conse
quence to Europe is easily under
stood. Europe ships a large part of
its manufactures to South America
and our Austrian producers well
know the value of their Brazilian and
Argentine customers, who purchase
their china, glass, paper, fancy goods,
shoes and other articles exported to
those countries. If those ports should
be closed to us by tariff rates as high
as those iu the United States, a large
part of our workmen and a still
larger part of German, French and
English laboring men would be in
danger of losing their employment.
There is, therefore, every reason
for reflecting seriously regarding this
matter and for not dismissing it as
being too far removed. It would be
a serious loss to Europe if the pol
iticians of Washington should suc
ceed in uniting the whole American
continent, not a single free territory,
but in a territory surrounded by in
surmountable custom berriers. Vi

.How Two Dover Girls Paid a Bet.
A Couple of Dover's leading belles
created a sensation in this staid old
capitol the other evening by truud
ling a well known butcher of sport
ing proclivities down the entire
length of the principal thoroughfare
in a wheelbarrow. The young ladies
were talking one day about some of
the peculiar bets that had been made
on the baseball ground that after
noon, when the butcher came along
and joined in the conversation.
After insinuating that a lady ney
er paid her wagers if she lost, he bet
that there was a letter awaiting him
at the postoffice, stipulating that if
there was the ladies were to convey
him to the depot, five blocks away,
in a grocer's wheelbarrow, while if
he lost he was to treat to the ice
cream. The young ladies accepted
the bet and the trio visited the post
office. The letter was there. It took
the girls just about five minutes to
borrow the shabbiest looking wheel
barrow in town, and in a trice they,
had it before the postoffice, where by1
this time quite a crowd had assem
bled. The butcher tried hard to beg off,
but willing hands dumped him in the
wheelbarrow, and one of the maidens
seized the handles. Off they went
at a rapid gait without regard to the
rider's bodily comfort. Hundreds
of persons gathered to see the show,
but it was the butcher and not the
girls who felt out of place. Before
they had gone a square he had of
fered to buy them everything from a
quart of ice cream to a silk dress
apiece if they would let up.
Never had such an interesting pro
cession paraded Dover's streets. The
girls trundled the wheelbarrow right
up to the depot doors, and there, in
the presence of an admiring crowd,
they dumped their irate and half
dead victim on the sidewalk. Dover

The Democratic nominee for gov
ernor in Ohio, Hon. J. E. Campbell,
turns out as the central star in an
other sensation. Early in the cam
paign the Bepublicans silenced him
on the subjects of trusts by proving
him the paid agent of the British
brewery trust. It is now proven
that Campbell introduced a bill in
Congress providing for the supply of
sevent3,:five thousand patent ballot
boxes to cost $25 each, which could
be readily and profitably supplied at
ten dollars each. The Bepublicans
now prove that he had a money in
terest in the scheme, which would
have netted him $120,000 if his bill
had became a law. Plainly, candi
date Campbell is a statesman sorely
troubled.
The Standard Oil Company failed
in the lower court at Findlay, O., to
establish its extraordinary claim to
control of the lands on which it holds
gas and oil leases. Judge Pendleton
dissolved the -injunction, deciding
that the campany can control only
so much of the surface of the leased
land as may be necessrry to develope
and utilize the underlaying gas und
oil. The company appealed the case
to the supreme court of Ohio. Its
verdict is awaited with great concern
by the thousands of owners of leased
lands.
The Fifty first Congress, which
meets regularly next December, will
be Bepublican in both branches. The
recent elections is the Dakotas, Wash
ington and Montana, resulted in the
triumphant election of every Bepub
lican candidate in the Louse. This
makes the house stand 169 Bepubli
cans and 161 Democrats. Counting
Montana's legislature Bepublican the
senate will stand 47 Bepublicans and
37 Democrats.
